The Labs That Make
Your Restorations
Most dental practices don't tell you where your crowns, veneers, and dentures are actually made. At Best Dental, we do. We work with three carefully selected dental laboratories — each chosen for a specific type of restoration — because the lab matters as much as the dentist.
Book Your AppointmentWhy the Lab Matters
When you get a crown, veneer, bridge, or denture at Best Dental, Dr. Jasmine Naderi and Dr. Sonny Naderi do the clinical work — but a skilled team of dental laboratory technicians handcrafts the actual restoration. The fit, color, durability, and natural appearance of your prosthetic depend heavily on which lab makes it and how well we communicate with them.
Many dental practices send all their cases to a single lab — often chosen for cost or convenience rather than quality. At Best Dental, we take a different approach: we've identified the best lab for each restoration type and we use them exclusively for that work. This means your veneer is made by specialists in cosmetic ceramics, your crown is fabricated by technicians who do crown and bridge work all day, and your denture is crafted by a lab that focuses on removable prosthetics.
Specialization Over Convenience
A lab that specializes in cosmetic veneers produces better cosmetic veneers than a generalist lab. We match the case to the lab's strengths — not the other way around.
Direct Communication
Our doctors communicate directly with lab technicians on shade, fit, and design — especially for complex cases. A local lab relationship makes that communication faster and more precise.
Quality Over Cost
We don't choose labs based on who gives us the cheapest per-unit pricing. We choose based on the quality of what they produce and what our patients experience.
Full Transparency
You deserve to know where your restorations are made. This page exists because we believe transparency is part of good patient care — not something to hide.
Lab 1: Mariner Dental Lab
Our cosmetic and full-mouth reconstruction partner — a Houston-area lab with over 10 years serving Greater Houston dental practices.
About This Lab
Mariner Dental Lab is a Greater Houston area dental laboratory that has served local dental practices for over 10 years. We chose Mariner as our cosmetic lab because their ceramists bring the level of artistry that high-stakes cosmetic work demands — particularly for porcelain veneers, Lumineers, and complex full-mouth reconstruction cases where shade matching, translucency, and individual tooth characterization are critical.
Being a local lab means Dr. Jasmine and Dr. Sonny Naderi can communicate directly with Mariner's team when a cosmetic case requires precise color coordination or custom characterization — something that simply isn't possible with overseas labs where communication happens by form and the finished product arrives weeks later with no ability to course-correct.

Lab 2: Ultimate Dental Lab
Our crown and bridge partner — a specialized New York City laboratory focused exclusively on crown and bridgework.
About This Lab
Ultimate Dental Lab is based in New York City and specializes in crown and bridgework. We selected them specifically for this case type because a lab that focuses on crown and bridge fabrication day in and day out produces consistently better-fitting, better-looking crowns than a generalist lab that handles everything from dentures to aligners.
Crown and bridge work requires precision fit above all else — a crown that doesn't seat perfectly, leaves an open margin, or creates bite interference is a clinical problem regardless of how it looks. Ultimate Dental Lab's specialization means our patients get crowns and bridges that fit right the first time, reducing chair time and remakes.

Lab 3: Jameson Dental Lab
Our removable prosthetics partner — a local Houston-area lab specializing in dentures, partials, flippers, and retainers.
About This Lab
Jameson Dental Lab is a Houston-area dental laboratory that specializes in removable prosthetics — dentures, partial dentures, flippers, and retainers. Removable prosthetics require a different skill set than fixed ceramics or crown and bridge work. Getting a denture to fit comfortably, look natural, and function well over years of daily use demands a lab that understands the nuances of removable appliance fabrication.
As a local lab, Jameson allows for quicker communication and adjustments — important for denture cases, where fit issues often require multiple fine-tuning appointments. Having a local lab relationship makes that process smoother for our patients and reduces total turnaround time when adjustments are needed.
